So pleased to feature the inimitable @valeriebjarrett in our April issue. As President Barack Obama's longest-serving senior adviser, she helped shape the past decade of U.S. history. But in her new memoir, out in April, it’s time for her own story. That does not include running for office (she’s done with that business) but focusing on gender equality, criminal-justice reform, civic engagement, and reducing gun violence. This lady is as brilliant as her Louboutin soles are red. #instylebadasswomen 📸@jeremy_liebman

As President Barack Obama's longest-serving senior adviser, @valeriebjarrett helped shape the past decade of U.S. history. In her new memoir, out in April, she opens up about her own story, including her future plans. That includes focusing on the issues that matter most to her, like gender equality, criminal-justice reform, civic engagement, and reducing gun violence. One thing NOT in her plans is running for public office, instead she’d “rather help the next group of people who want to run,” she tells @jenniferferrise in our April issue. She offers the same advice to everyone, especially young people, who approach her: “We have to find a candidate who’s going to lead our country in a way that’s inclusive and true to our values, which is why everybody has to vote. It’s up to all of us now.” Read more about her incredible history at the link in bio. #instylebadasswomen | Photographed by @jeremy_liebman

From experiencing assault in dark corridors of the ER, to feeling like “the operating room is the locker room,” women in healthcare are now speaking out and demanding safe, equitable workplaces. “I thought, well if it happens in their industry, and they’re uniting with farmworkers and all these other industries… I thought it was weird that these conversations were happening in parallel but not joined,” Jessi Gold, MD, MS, tells @inlauraswords. So she sent a tweet to @timesupnow saying, hey, there are some women doctors I think you need to talk to. And the rest is soon to be history, as Time’s Up Healthcare officially launches on March 1. More on how @timesuphc is taking on sexism in doctors’ offices and hospitals at the link in bio. #timesuphc

I’m always so thrilled and inspired to see write up’s and continued recognition of those I came up under. E, you deserve every article, award, adulation of praise and the respect that you’ve worked so hard to attain. Beyond being a titan in the music industry, you continuously keep it cute effortlessly😊. @instylemagazine got it right with this one. That ATL ain’t nothing to play with baby and neither is the Detroit soul you’re pioneering for this generation. Cheers to you sis! 1 of 1 and still so much more to tackle, but I’m confident things aren’t done heating up anytime soon. And to top it off you are just as beautiful inside as you are outside and brilliantly bold. Proud to know my generation and the generation under me have a solid representation of black excellence minus the pretentiousness that can come from a lot of seemingly well to do black folk, who have “arrived”. You are just as humble and real as I remember walking up on you that night back in ‘07 at the BMI Christmas party. What a force you’ve become over these 10+ years. You are necessary to the conversation. Nothing but love and appreciation for you. Y’all help make this March issue the be the biggest seller of the year! #instylebadasswomen S/o the lovely editor and chief @laurabrown99 + @spulia for highlighting and sharing #herstory of our hometown hero and national treasure if you ask me THE DOPEST ETHIOPIAN @theethiopiandream#music#fashion#lifestyle#architects ✨

“I’m bringing back f—ing Motown. That’s badass.” 💪 @theethiopiandream is unstoppable. And the best part is she’s hell-bent on helping other women in music make it to the top, too. Ultimate badassery. Catch more of our interview in the March issue of @instylemagazine (on newsstands tomorrow!) #instylebadasswomen

“I’m bringing back f—ing Motown. That’s badass.” Ethiopia Habtemariam, the EVP of Capitol Music Group and the President of Motown Records, is ushering in a new era of artists. “This is the most legendary label in music. When you think about what started as in a small neighborhood in Detroit, and all its superstars [the Jackson 5, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, the Supremes] who went on to touch the world with their music — I want to remind people of that.” Ethiopia is one of the most powerful women in music and she’s breaking barriers for women of color — read @spulia’s interview at the link in bio. #instylebadasswomen

From “Self-Care Sunday” to “Motivation Monday” I talked to @instylemagazine about how really just doing you is all you can do, so do it with no apologies. To me, self care isn’t all face masks and bubble baths and eventually I had to really meet myself. 😉 Check below!

Comfort zones are overrated, if you ask model @candicehuffine. “At the end of 2015, my husband dared me to make running my New Year’s resolution. I was scared of it. I felt my body wasn’t a runner’s body. [I thought] I’m going to be slow," she says in our August #badasswomenissue. But when she crossed the finish line of the 2017 Boston Marathon, “I told myself that I will never say I can’t do something again. It was hard and scary and the most satisfying thing I’ve ever done." Today, she wants every woman to define wellness on her own terms. “I don’t think you have to run a marathon to have a connection with your body. Self-care is an exploration of yourself — whatever that looks like to you is perfect.” #instylebadasswomen

This absolute legend. Geena Davis is not only a movie icon, but with @gdigm, her institute studying gender inequality in cinema, she is pushing Hollywood to balance the scale. She’s brilliant, she’s hilarious, she’s an Olympic archer (never forget), and not for nothing, she’s got legs for days. Lucky to know this major lady and thrilled she’s in #instylebadasswomen 📸 @beaugrealy, styled by @sue_choi@instylemagazine

When choreographer @sherriesilver first found her groove, she never imagined it would become a career. Her signature dance style pairs African moves with her own frenetic creations, and has caught the attention of stars like @childishgambino and @ritaora and brands like @nike and @target. “It just shows that as a dark-skinned girl from Africa, you can achieve all these things.” Learn more about Sherrie at the link in bio. #instylebadasswomen I Photographed by @charlottehadden; Styled by @samranger

Geena Davis was encouraged by the number of females elected in the midterms, but knows there’s still a LONG way to go — in Washington and Hollywood. “It’s going to take tremendous effort over decades to get anywhere close to parity,” she says, “but onscreen we could reach parity overnight.” The @gdigm sets out to do just that. The institute’s studies have confirmed the shocking gender inequalities that plague Hollywood, and are working to fight them. “When there’s a female lead, she’s onscreen and speaks about a third of the time that a male lead does, which is astounding,” she tells @chrsitinelennonplus2.
